Which of the following is the correct action to take when simplifying the expression x^2x^4 a.. add the exponents. b.. subtract the exponents. c.. multiply the exponents. d.. divide the exponents

x^2* x^4 = x^6

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct action to take when simplifying the expression x^2x^4

To simplify the exponents we apply exponential property

a^m * a^n= a^m+n

When the exponents with same base are in addition then we add the exponents

So we add the exponents 2  and 4 that is 6

fist on the left goes with the third on the right. second on the left goes with the fourth on the right. third on the left goes with the second on the right. the fourth on the left goes with first on the right
